I already put out some flower bed trim riding around our vehicles in the driveway... That held no pleasant reprocutions

You might as well go to DPS and give them your license now. If you ride that thing on the street much more, you know as well as I do what will happen.

maybe he'll listen to you more than me...haha

That's pretty much what I said.....and it's loud to the everyone can hear him for miles in the developments. I think we are taking it to his parents farm next weekend to play in the dirt a bit. I need to learn out to kick start the darn thing, I never did that before and don't want my first ride to be at the track. So I'm looking forward to play time....

Track verdict - CHECK PLUS PLUS

Forget sportbikes and being worn the hell out after a whole day of riding. This thing is the tits for the track. The only 2 issues I had - a "smaller than I thought" gas tank and the ability to kickstart in the cold.

Thankfully I ran out coming right into pit, and learned the secret to the cold start. Pics soon to come hopefully if there are any of me.

Nice... yeah I never understood the 'tard craze... until I got my DRZ... granted it's heavy as shit... but it's also shit loads of fun.

if I end up near a track or twisties... I'll have a tard version in my garage at my next base

I could understand the simplicity of it after riding dirtbikes. Just put gas in it, keep the oil changed and go.

There's only minor pitfalls if you let them get to you, but every type of bike is different and it just took a quick adjustment.
